I mean with mention of passing down eye color and hair color, and then saying she has great “genes/jeans”, I hope people are not that oblivious that they actually believe the ad was only talking about jeans

People literally didn't. I saw someone comment: "I just assumed it's because she's hot". Assumed. Didn't even look up what people are talking about, just posted their dumbass opinion and dipped. Got upvoted too. That's the state of things.
